Words that rhyme with Equality
Equality, a four-syllable idea-word looking for a body, lands its weight on the tight /ษช/ and ends on an unbuttoned vowel. Songwriters anchor it with an image to keep the line from floating. Take the rhyme counts on their own terms: strict matches don't survive the classifier, the family-rhyme bucket is bare, the slant pool, matched on vowel alone, is huge. Take the lyric role separately and it's an idea-word. Assonance is where the modern songwriting toolkit lives for this one.

Why equality rhymes the way it does
Equality is four-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the short /ษช/, then it doesn't close on a consonant at all. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 2 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 96, assonance 7,195, and consonance 334. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. Practical: skim the strict column first and pick the two or three matches you can sing without thinking. Then move to assonance for the in-between lines. Equality reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
